Abstract

Objective. To study the causes of death from common diseases at the workplace and to develop the scientifically grounded programs aimed at their prevention and decrease. A sudden death of a person at workplace is a global issue of occupational medicine in all the countries. About 85 % of sudden deaths occur due to health status of workers, first of all, circulatory system diseases and only 15 % are caused by occupational accidents.

Materials and methods. To reach the aim, there were investigated the materials of investigation of the cases of death form common diseases at the workplace for 5 years (2014–2018) presented by the State Labor Inspection in the Republic of Bashkortostan.

Results. According to the analyzed data of medicolegal report of accidents with lethal outcome resulting from common diseases it was established that men aged 56–60 years, workers, mostly of manufacturing industry, died more often (92.5 %). Program of preventive measures was worked out on the basis of the obtained results.

Conclusions. High death rate from circulatory system diseases at workplace needs a complex of treatment and preventive measures to be developed, which will decrease the risk of a sudden cardiac death among workers of industrial enterprises.
